Iris City Garden, Early Morn Painting, More ...Around the Yard Plants, Cows in a Row and ADHD

I love finding out about new
things. While standing in line to get in the pool
the other day, I of course had to talk
to people around me.  But, how else
are you to find out about things
in a new area you live in?
Anyway, I found out, just about
15 minutes down the road
to Primm Springs there is an 
Iris Farm.
I need to hurry and get there
to see things before they close
June 28th. Next yr. I will be ready for 
sure. They open in April, so next  yr,
I will be able to work it in.
You can check this out at.

7:45 Wednesday morning, I was heading out.

Did I tell you about the woman that
pulled in the driveway one day and invited
me to paint with her and some of her friends.
Its 45 min to one hour to the friends 
house. I elected to follow Vicki cause
I had an appt afterwards. 
I got out of the car way back in 
rural Dickson Co.
Got out of the car and told Vicki,
"Driving out here I got to thinking, 
Pam, you don't know this lady that
well, is she taking you out in the boonies
to do away with me, is she a serial 
killer!
lol..
I would share my painting,
BUT, I had to leave early before
I finished it, but I will get that 
done and share it.

Yesterday, I showed that horrible pic
of my very first bloom in my
wildflower BED. Today on my 
walkabout, I took a pic from below
looking up.

This is the 2nd bloomer in the 
WF Bed. 

On Wednesday late afternoon I went
out to water. While watering 
I looked and wondered what was
in there with them.


Mom Mushroom and two babies
tucked away under the Day Lily 
leaves.
Another first, my first
Morning Glory growing
around the mailbox.
They purple behind it is 
my spiderwort.

Just shooting

And trying to be creative.
The mailbox area.

I had to stop in the middle
of the road the other day to 
take a pic of these cows as
they walked towards me.
Yes, they were behind fencing
but farmer Joe had just put out
feed, and here they 
COME,


all in a line.

Liz, I am with you about the ADHD
and I think you prob had already
picked up on my quirkiness, oddness
and the fact I love that I am different.
So, I think it's a mix of Fibro, 
ADHD and being Aquarius.
I know I talk off and on about
the Fibro but it has changed my life
and me more than I care to 
admit, but I still try to 
find that something good in it...
The fact that it adds a certain
amount of my oddness would be 
that good thing.
I have been called worse than
Neurospicy
or
Neurodivergent.
Odd, strange, different, special,
not right, indigo child, 
witch, bitch, (lol),
crazy....
and the list goes on, so with anyone
saying those things to me,
I look at them and say.
"thank you!"

And adding ADHD to the list of crap I 
have wrong with me, it's just 
another thing.

The Rest of Today

Image
After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after h...

Coffee Table Redo

Image
Morning all. Couple weeks ago I found this at a neighbors home put out on the side of the  road. Loaded it up in my Prius. It was heavy and LONG.  Standing it up next to me it comes to my shoulders and I am 5'2. My daughter Amber had told me just that week that she needed a coffee table. I think it was meant to be! Basic maple with a traditional  look and a formica top. that you can't do much with. So after checking with my daughter to be sure size would not be a problem I got to work. I built a frame. My thoughts were that if I made a frame and attached wood to that I could slip it right over the top of the existing table top.  Oops....forgot a step... before making the frame I spray painted the base in an ivory color.  Now with that step added in I  move on to what it looks like with the wood attached  to my frame. It slipped right over the top ...

Another Chilling Day - Brothers HOuse

House/dog/bird sitting at my brothers house.  Of course this was Lily's first trip there. Dakota  has house sat with me many times.  Lily was not too sure what to think about Ms. Lola. She loves the ledge at the large windows! My brother has some really pretty sunflowers.....all about to give it up for the summer. Wasp drinking from the hummingbird feeder. Just wondering if these are hot... haha...I will pass on trying them  out though. Bell pepper hiding from  view. Check out the spider web. Loving this shot with the barn in the  background.  This is a form of a bush called Datura stramonium ,  known by the  English names   jimsonweed  or  Devil's snare , the seed pod.  Lily pads. Another bell pepper. Hovering over the pond. My sis in law has been canning.  Messi...
